Fair money goes<br />
to good causes<br />
OUR LADY Star of the Sea<br />
held its annual Mission Day<br />
Fair recently.<br />
Held on the school<br />
grounds, hundreds of residents<br />
came down.<br />
The pupils co-ordinated<br />
the fair and sold secondhand<br />
board games, books<br />
and toys.<br />
They also had a cake stall,<br />
Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong>’s year<br />
5 Korimako class had a<br />
go at sailing. Here’s what<br />
they had to say about<br />
their experience<br />
Last Monday, we went sailing<br />
at Charteris <strong>Bay</strong> Yacht<br />
Club. It was a beautiful day. As<br />
we drove down, we could see<br />
the water sparkling.<br />
At the club, we met our<br />
instructor Henry, and we<br />
quickly got dressed into our<br />
wet suits and life jackets.<br />
Before we were allowed out<br />
onto the water, Henry taught<br />
barbecue, bouncy castle, fun<br />
games and competitions.<br />
The money raised was donated<br />
to St Joseph’s School<br />
in Samoa, although the<br />
children decided to donate<br />
half the money to St Joseph’s<br />
School in Kaikoura so that<br />
the pupils there could have<br />
some fun.<br />
The fair raised $969.<br />
us about the parts of the optimist<br />
boat. We learned to use<br />
the rudder to turn and how to<br />
use the mainsheet to control<br />
the speed. We also learned<br />
how to avoid the boom, which<br />
makes exactly that sound if it<br />
hits your head!<br />
Once the optimists were<br />
launched, we did follow the<br />
leader. Elijah was set a challenge<br />
because he was so fast.<br />
He had to sail to the end of the<br />
line and then come back.<br />
After lunch, we went back<br />
on the water to play a game<br />
called sponge tag, which was<br />
lots of fun. We also learned<br />
SHIELD FEVER: Pupils at Our Lady Star of the Sea got to hold the<br />
Ranfurly Shield on Friday. Crusaders and former Canterbury coach<br />
Scott Robertson, whose three children attend the school, came in<br />
and gave parents and children an opportunity to get up close and<br />
personal with the shield. (Left) Principal John Kane took time out to<br />
pose with pupils Darcy and Macklan.<br />
how to capsize, which was<br />
more fun than it sounds, as<br />
long as you didn’t get your sail<br />
stuck in the mud.<br />
